Cargo Load Floor

The cargo load floor system has a load capacity of 400 lbs (181 kg). The load floor has a built-in storage bin that can hold a variety of items. The underside of the storage bin cover also contains a plastic lined tray. The cover can be installed with either side facing up for added utility.

To provide additional storage area, each rear seat can be folded flat. This allows for extended cargo space and still maintains some rear seating room. Refer to “Seats” in “Understanding the Features of Your Vehicle” for further information.
